MacBook Air :: Unable To Use VLC Media Player With AVCHD MTS2 1080p60 Video?
Apr 23, 2012
I just loaded VLC (32/64 bits Intel Mac ,2.0.1) on my 13.3" Core i7 Air with 256GB SSD and it does not play my 1080p60 video smooth like on my PC using VLC on Windows 8 Consumer Preview. Is there another free player for AVCHD MTS2 1080p60 video that might work better in Lion ? I also tried MPlayerX and the 1080p60 video looks smooth but audio is out of sync. I hope Mountain Lion comes with Quicktime that supports AVCHD MTS2 1080p60 video files from my two year old Panasonic TM700 camcorder.
Info:
MacBook Air, Mac OS X (10.7.2), Core i7 , 256GB

Digital movies play just fine on my camera, a NIkon Coolpix but once I import them to either quicktime or windows media player they do not play smoothly. Any ideas why or what I can do to correct this?
Info: quicktime or windows media player , Windows XP, camera digital films won't play
Is the CPU in the 13" MBP fast enough to do a reasonable job of editing HD video (AVCHD) and RAW images? I want to burn the edited video to Blu-Ray. The RAW images will be manipulated using Lightroom. It will be connected to a 24" external display so the screen size on the laptop itself is no issue. I'm concerned about cpu and gpu power.
I'm debating whether to go with the Imac of the Mac pro to do some amateur photo and video editing with my new Canon HF 11 HD camcorder. I have NEVER worked with video before and I'm a little nervous pulling the trigger after visiting several Apple stores. I've heard some nightmares about editing high definition video in the AVCHD format. I guess I'm asking this is editing with AVCHD possible with an IMAC? Are the new 24inch IMACs going to be power enough? Would you recommend a powerful Mac Pro instead? Do you see any issues with the AVCHD format?
I just inherited this 6 month old macbook aluminum unibody and I am still getting used to it.
In order to do so I want to ask the experts what is the best Media player out there for my machine. One that covers plenty of different popular formats? Or a plugin type? I'm not realy savvy on this subject and I want to do the right thing. This is mainly for video viewing.
We are using quick time player plugin and embedded it in the html. We are trying the play the streaming video URL in the quick time player plugin using Safari 5.1 It is working fine with Firefox, IE and even safari 5.0. Able to play the stand alone video but not the streaming video URL.Â
Can I edit HD 1080i/p video in AVCHD on MacMini - i5 2,3 GHz, 500 GB, 2GB RAM, Intel HD Graphics 3000 in iMovie? Will it be stable and useable? I need it for home use only so do not mind about waiting to render/ compile DVD etc. I might need to upgrade RAM to 4 or 8GB, but is the CPU & GPU good enough?
I have an iMac with the Radeon 2600 graphics (I think it's about a year old). I'm looking for a video editing package (or at minimum playback package) that uses video processing to decode the AVCHD files (.mts in my case). I've demo'd a couple packages which I was told did not use GPU support and of course they brought my machine to a standstill and the video clips as well. I realize I can translate them to MP4 or something instead but I then have to manage the original clips vs the outputs. I'd at least like to have something that catalogs the files and keeps meta-data so they're organized since my Canon camcorder seems to reuse file names. realize Adobe's package has native editing but even on that one, I'm not sure it uses the GPU. I believe the 2600 has AVCHD support. I think it says AVC H.264 which I think is what I'd need assuming there existed such a package.
I have downloaded a movie which came as a DVD player media document. I can view it on the Mac but don't understand how to burn it onto a disk to play on my DVD player. The apps I have don't recorgnize it. First time I have encountered this so sorry if it is a very basic question.
i am trying to listen to a radio station in firefox but i cant get it to work. i tried it on my windows laptop and it looks like it is windows media. so how the heck am i supposed to play streaming windows media files?
i was trying to download the windows media player from the apple site`s link - donwloads, but i cant !?! also, im trying to watch some online tv, but i need windows media player. i go to their site

but when i download the WMP for mac OS X, my mac cant read the file and it presents in the text edit application ?
I have flip4mac, windows media player 9 and all the plugins that I supposedly need for this to work. I get "Firefox cant view Media Player, Click here".
I'm figuring out some stuff on guitar and need sections of a piece to repeat over and over to make the task easier. Does anyone know of a free media player that will allow you to repeatedly repeat a chosen section. It's a feature a lot of dvd machines have.
The media player should be able to apply this feature to flv files.
DVD Player won't read most of my commercial DVD media. I insert the disk, and it shows up on the desktop. But when I try to run it through the DVD app, the program just freezes, and I get the beach ball. I tried opening through VLC player, and even VLC wouldn't correctly read the disk.
I have the original Apple-shipped Superdrive, as well as an external Lacie drive. I tried disks in both drives with the same result.
I don't know why but I was having problems with wmp, so i decided to throw it in the recycle bin and just dl it again, and re install. So when i tried to empty the Trash, a box comes up telling me a certain file within wmp cannot be deleted cause its "protected".
after installing VLC in my mac book , my .wmv files are no longer playable with windows media player, i was able to play them just fine before that ( more than 6 months)
i uninstal VLC
I uninstall WMP, reinstall it and no luck. WMP crash right after i open the file , i made sure that when i put it in the bin WMP got deleted cause i was getting errors that a bunch of files were locked
Just got a Sumvision Cyclone Media Player and connected to my mac book pro. It found the drive called as "New Volume". Open the folder and had different folders inside: Movies, Music, Pictures, System Volume Information. If I get into the folders as for example "Movies" files I cannot drag any files to the folders since a message comes for example:
The item "XXXXX.avi" could not be moved because "New Volume" cannot be modified. What should I do? Is that because I am using a Mac computer? And if so do I need to erase and reformat the drive or what? Desperate here.
Trying to download vlc-2.0.1 dmg and I get a message that "Safari can't complete the download because there isnt enough free disc space". The staus on my hard drive shows 916 GB available, so I don't understand. Had no trouble with other downloads (Office 2011).Â
another program for opening windows media player?Â
